EURAXESS Japan - ERC Synergy Grants Info Session

This is a special event on the occasion of the launch by the European Research Council of a new type of grants: the Synergy grants.

These grants sanction longer projects (6 years), require joint application and collaboration between different Principal Investigators (2 to 4); but require less total working time on the project (30%).

A quick overview of the ERC grants scheme will be followed by a thorough introduction of the Synergy grants to allow attendees to compare them.

This event is of interest to mid- to advanced- career researchers and professors, URAs, research management and international cooperation professionals; and in general to any researcher based in Japan interested in knowing more about the ERC Synergy grants before this year's first call.
